line_n which_o be_v on_o the_o pasteboard_n or_o paper_n upon_o that_o which_o be_v draw_v on_o the_o plane_n you_o may_v prick_v two_o point_n through_o every_o line_n in_o the_o paper_n and_o thereby_o draw_v they_o upon_o the_o plane_n 4._o if_o you_o will_v make_v a_o large_a dyal_n than_o the_o instrument_n set_v close_o will_v give_v you_o you_o may_v do_v it_o by_o set_v the_o instrument_n further_o off_o but_o than_o if_o you_o know_v not_o how_o to_o draw_v parallel_a line_n without_o a_o second_o application_n of_o the_o instrument_n you_o must_v be_v sure_a to_o set_v it_o just_a at_o the_o same_o distance_n from_o the_o plane_n at_o both_o application_n to_o which_o purpose_n it_o will_v be_v convenient_a to_o interpose_v a_o parallel_n piece_n of_o wood_n true_o wrought_v but_o to_o make_v a_o less_o dyal_n of_o this_o sort_n you_o must_v have_v a_o less_o instrument_n or_o else_o by_o take_v the_o dyal_n off_o the_o basis_n you_o may_v apply_v it_o close_o or_o make_v use_n of_o a_o small_a horizontal_a dyal_n which_o indeed_o will_v do_v this_o work_n and_o some_o of_o the_o other_o as_o well_o as_o the_o instrument_n 5._o the_o line_n of_o vi_o and_o the_o substyle_n be_v the_o same_o 6._o you_o may_v make_v the_o dyal_n of_o what_o shape_n you_o please_v as_o round_o square_a oval_a or_o in_o the_o form_n of_o a_o heart_n etc._n etc._n but_o a_o long_a square_n be_v most_o usual_a nor_o do_v it_o matter_n how_o long_o or_o short_a the_o hour-line_n be_v provide_v they_o run_v straight_o on_o so_o far_o as_o they_o go_v 12._o to_o draw_v a_o horizontal_n dyal_n upon_o its_o own_o plane_n this_o be_v so_o easy_a that_o i_o think_v to_o have_v omit_v it_o for_o if_o you_o place_v the_o instrument_n upon_o it_o and_o turn_v the_o dyal_n to_o the_o true_a hour_n of_o the_o day_n there_o fix_v it_o the_o thread_n lay_v upon_o the_o several_a hour_n half_a hour_n and_o quarter_n will_v transfer_v they_o to_o the_o plane_n and_o line_n draw_v from_o the_o opposite_a hour_n of_o the_o same_o number_n will_v meet_v in_o the_o centre_n and_o the_o gnomon_n of_o the_o dyal_n give_v the_o pattern_n of_o the_o gnomon_n of_o the_o other_o which_o must_v be_v place_v in_o the_o meridian_n line_n which_o i_o show_v before_o how_o to_o draw_v to_o the_o centre_n of_o the_o new_a dyal_n the_o instrument_n may_v be_v make_v use_n of_o for_o draw_v of_o reflect_v dial_n and_o many_o other_o curiosity_n but_o the_o performance_n presuppose_v more_o skill_n than_o i_o can_v presume_v to_o be_v in_o they_o for_o who_o this_o contrivance_n be_v principal_o intend_v if_o any_o one_o desire_n to_o be_v furnish_v with_o the_o instrument_n herein_o describe_v he_o may_v make_v use_n of_o mr._n edward_n fage_n in_o hosier-lane_n at_o the_o sign_n
